#16 Going From An Old EMR To A New EMR: Featuring Dr. Seth Kaplan [Pediatric Practice Management AwesomeCast]

Meaningful Use and ARRA have brought a huge interest in practices adoption Electronic Medical Records for the very first time. But there is also large number of practices that are in the process of going through the process of switching to their second EMR. In fact, our practice is one of those practices ready to make the transition. Chip and I thought it would be good idea to talk to somebody that has gone through the transition and learn a little more about how this process works, what are some of the considerations we must remember not to forget, and a few lessons learned. Today, our special guest is Dr. Seth Kaplan, who transitioned from his original EHR and tells us about the lessons he learned. Don’t forget to visit the PPMMC Google+ page, and PCC.
